Hodges upsets Tucker in Warsaw's mayoral race

Paul E. (“Mike”) Hodges, Warsaw’s perennial candidate, did it again! He won the office of Mayor of Warsaw in Tuesday’s mayoral election over incumbent Mayor H. Dale Tucker by a slim 23 votes. It was one of that city’s closest elections in many a year. It was Tucker seeking his second term as mayor in what was generally described as a hard-fought election. His term has been issue-oriented, and the mayor appeared confident as he attempted to conduct his campaign on what he called “the high road.” Hodges had won the mayor’s office in 1951,1959,1967 and 1971. He is a 70-year-old retired construction contractor. He praised Mayor Tucker for the projects he initiated in Warsaw, and pledged to continue them, in past-election remarks. At Democratic headquarters in Warsaw county Democratic chairman Stanley Nice said he “was stunned” by the results of the electiop, adding, "we gave this city the best administration it’s ever had.” He added, “As county chairman I’ve never experienced a better campaign than we’ve had here,” and he asked his party workers to look to the future of the Democratic par-

Ball State study shows health of area lakes

Area lakes were included in a study by two Ball State University professors, Byron Torke and W. Herbert Senft. The two men are completing a study on a statistical classification of 419 public lakes. The lakes from this area, which were mentioned in an unreleased study, are classified on a scale of one to 75, the lowest scores represent the cleanest or best lakes. They are: Syracuse, four; Wawasee, 15-18; Dewart, 36-44; Big Barbie, 38; Winona, 56; Ridinger, 58; and Waubee, 60. The stuHy, which was contracted by the state and required by the Environmental Protection Agency, is the first to index lakes as to chepiical concentrations, For Sole Or Trade COON DOGS $ GLEN KREFT $ (219)498-6594 $ « [Tippecanoe ®

The study also examines the current methodologies for protection and restoration of the lakes — and priorities for lakes in need of immediate attention. The outgrowth of the study is to identify the problems and cures to channel EPA funds to the appropriate lakes. this study was published in the Fort Wayne Journal Gazette on Sunday and carried a by-line of Sherman Goldenberg, staff writer.

accomplished a lot and I feel good about it.” Holbrook A ‘Spoiler* It was generally felt that Howard (“Sam”) Holbrook, running on the Independent ticket for sheriff, was a spoiler. He won 482 votes, or 12.9 per cent, but more than likely took votes from Mayor Tucker. Holbrook was a popular two-term sheriff and did little campaigning for Mayor. The only Democrat who won in Warsaw’s city election was Jeffrey W. Plank, with 738 votes to 612 votes for his opponent John P. Burns for the city council seat in the first district. The other votes were as follows: Clerk-treasurer — Pamela Ann Peacock, R, 1,906; Paul R. Kingston, D, 1,680. Councilman, 2d district — Terry J. Klondaris, R. 612; Donald 0. Bixel. D. 365. Councilman, 3d district — J. Frederick Helfrich, R, 444; Fred J. Boggs, D, 386. Councilman, 4th district — Robert M. Nichols, R, 316; Robert L. Robinson, D, 213. Councilman-At-Large — Phillip J. Roy, R. 1,852; John Kleeman, D. 1,831, a plurality of only 21 votes.

Kiwanis learn of propane fuel

The Wawasee Kiwanis learned of propane as a motor fuel from their recent guest speaker, Link Young, a representative of Thermogas of New Paris. Thermogas is the only retail division of its large parent company, Mapico, a propane distributor. Thermogas sells and services home heating plants, appliances and small heaters. Although the current energy problem was discussed, most of the discussion was centered around the use of propane as a motor fuel. Propane, a pressurized liquid petroleum gas already in large use as a home heating fuel, has been running the fleet of Thermogas trucks and cars since 1955. Although the BTUs of propane in comparison to miles per gallon are virtually the same, engine wear is minimal with considerable longevity added to the engine life and with minor periodic tune-ups necessary. The problem is the availability of propane refueling stations to make trips possible and a viable alternative to gasoline. Young would like to see more production of propane, which is now only six percent, giving it a better chance of becoming a viable substitue to gasoline The meeting adjourned with club members "popping the hood” on Young’s new Ford to gaze at the dual-fueled engine with the capability of using propane and gasoline.
